I honestly don't see a style clash with the Admiral in that setting at all.

I liked that photo! It is exactly the same model of TV that started my collection 16 years ago! The first of 60 vintage TVs I now own! The TV in the picture is even missing the control door like mine!

Interesting that people where breaking those flimsy spring-hinged doors off that early into the life of the set. That explains why so many are found missing these days!

Ovenmaster, exactly what I was trying to show. I have been in contact with the El Paso Historic Society and they are waiting on the edge of their chairs to get these scans to add to their collection. It is all slice-of-life from 1937 to 1971...in color. The 8mm film of the original adobe design control tower at EP airport is worth the effort. American Airline DC-3's on the ramp. Uncle Kenny ran a general store/meat market in the day and lived on a ranch outside town. Horses. Mountains. Desert. It is all we grew up with if you are old enough to remember. Get the scanners going.
